Exair’s new VariBlast Precision Safety Air Gun with Nano Super Air Nozzle provides a focused blast of air to handle tough jobs with remarkable strength. This CE compliant lightweight air gun employs an engineered variable flow trigger able to produce variable force upon a target simply by pulling the trigger. This article first appeared in the August 2021 issue of Food and Drink Business.

A convenient hanger loop as well as the comfortable full finger trigger are built-in to this ¼” Safety Air Gun. The Nano Super Air Nozzle requires only 8.3 SCFM and is made of Type 316SS or PEEK thermoplastic.  

Distributed by Compressed Air Australia, the VariBlast Precision Safety Air Gun is available with a standard, 12” (305mm) or 20” (508mm) extension which can also be outfitted with an impact resistant polycarbonate Chip Shield.  The air gun body is made of high impact, glass reinforced nylon. The airflow that exits the nozzle can’t be blocked, assuring safe operation and meeting required OSHA standards 1910.242(b). This VariBlast Precision air gun produces a quiet 75 dBA noise level which is well below the limits of the OSHA noise exposure standard 29 CFR 1910.95(a).
